Treatment

Treatment

Average session length from start to finish is 50 minutes. Depending on the person and the condition(s) being addressed for that person, the number of sessions will vary. Most people find that 10-20 sessions bring the level of improvement they are seeking. We recommend that sessions occur twice a week although for some weekly treatments are equally effective. Because it is a form of training, intermittent sessions are less effective.

What to expect

Often times a change is noticeable after the first treatment, whereby the person feels more relaxed. For others it may take up to four sessions to notice a “shift”, which can include a clearer mind and a generally calmer sense of being. It may show up as a lower golf score or better sleeping patterns.

Four phases

While it is not important to understand how something works in order to benefit from it, many people are curious to know at least a bit about what is happening during a Neurofeedback session. An average session consists of four phases that are seamless over the session. phase one: warm upphase two: releasing and “letting go”phase three: forging new neural pathwaysphase four: cool down and integration
